Got Jam???

So my son has developed a weird and disgusting habit....

He is obsessed with toe jam!

Every time we come in the door from being out... the socks come off and we are searching for toe jam.

When we are home... he refuses to wear socks and is searching for toe jam.

Carter will plop down anywhere and everywhere to pick his toe jam. And will proudly announce when he has found some! It's very exciting! (sarcasm)

Oh... and might I add... he is not afraid to pick other toes for toe jam. I was nursing Elliot yesterday... and my socks were ripped off and he was searching in every 'nook and cranny' for some toe jam... When that search resulted in nothing... he moved on to his brothers toes.

What a ham!

My little angel. Elliot is doing very well and adjusting to life in this crazy house.

Most days Elliot will sleep 3 to 4 hour stretches, wake up to eat, play a little and then pass back out. So far so good!!!!

LOVE this hat... he is too stinkin cute in it!

These two are absolute buddies. Carter can't keep his hands off of him!

Welcome Baby Elliot!!!

It has been a while since I posted pics... but as you can tell I have been just a little busy...

Carter is absolutely in love with his baby brother! We are constantly kissing and hugging him.

A Monkey and Ice Cream

It was quite an interesting Halloween this year. I didn't realize that when I bought this adorable monkey suit... it would suit him so well. I bought it several months ago and since then, he has been practicing the part... as you can see.

We didn't take him door to door this year... cause that would involve a lot of driving for us... so we compromised. Friday I took him to Patty's, Mom's, and Dad's work. The kid got so much loot... I'm glad we didn't do the door to door thing. Jason and I will be eating TONS of candy for quite some time!

He was quite exhausted from the busy morning of performing for everyone... He collapsed on the market floor...

There was a banana attached to the sleeve... and he 'ate' it all day long.

The infamous 'surprise face'... need I say more?

Nana brought Ice Cream cones for dessert one night... definitely a hit with Carter. He ate the entire thing! As you can see, he was eating it from both ends....

Yummy in my tummy!

Hamball!

Carter is quite the character. He loves his dogs. He wrestles every time he gets the opportunity. Obviously Mickey has retired the idea that Carter needs to leave him alone... and goes with the flow. These two are the best of buds.

We have discovered coloring. And we absolutely love coloring. There isn't a day that we aren't coloring.

We color everything that we can get our hands on...

Did I mention that he likes to eat the crayons and markers? Yummy! Many of our markers and crayons are missing their tips... he gets those suckers in his mouth before I even know it!

Carter loves his daddy... they are buddies.

We have been so busy this past month picking pumpkins. Carter absolutely loved this pumpkin season. He came out the the patch with us on several occasions... picking pumpkins and dirt of course!

Carter has decided that his name is Gus and he is 2.

People are constantly asking his name and age when we are out and about... and he responds 'Gus' and '2', without skipping a beat. I guess I should have named him Gus....

Golfin' with the guys

The Fire Department had their annual golf outing at the end of August and Carter really enjoyed himself. We arrived early for the outing so I could help with registering all the men and Carter took that extra time as an opportunity for Daddy to teach him a thing or two about golf.

"I didn't get a bit of that golfing business, Mommy. Can we go shopping instead?"

Cheeseball!

After I loaded all of these pictures on the page I realized they all have one thing in common.... He's naked in all of them! It's been a hot few weeks and we have been enjoying the freedom!!

Daddy took Carter on a Mule ride to cool off... they went up and down the road a million times and Carter was loving it!

I'm not sure who loved the pool more... Carter or the dogs.

We also have a new found love of bubbles!!! Morning, noon, and night... he is begging me for a bubble bath!

Loves to eat the bubbles....

Corn on the cob is his FAVORITE!! We have corn almost every night....

He absolutely loves it.

P.S. Carter is going to have a baby brother!!! :)

Boys will be boys!!

I was completely ashamed the other day when I got on here and realized that I haven't posted pictures since May!! We have been super busy. Mom and Dad have decided to sell their house... I am doing Farmer's Market three days a week... and so on and so forth!

Carter is growing like a weed and continually amazes me every day! We have realized that we have an opinion and are entitled to share it! Hopefully we'll get this out of our system soon!

He has become quite the daddy's boy and is all about getting dirty... as you can see.

He was only outside with Jason and Bill for a few minutes... but was able to get dirty enough to need a bath before dinner.

Mom and Dad had a garage sale last week and Carter was such a big help! He made sure Pappy was using his pig poke the right way...

NOT FOR SALE!!!!!

So when daddy and Carter get together and play.... nothing good comes out of it. As you can see.... we were having a blast!

One of the many messes I have to clean up every day!

Carter was feeding Mickey some goldfish... and having a good time.

If I can't find him.. this is usually where he is! Where is daddy? Where is bill?
